Lord of the Oasis

Austinger glanced at Gilbert next to him, still confused.

During the march, Austinger couldn't help but bend down and asked Gilbert: "What's the matter with you today?"

"I just feel that my question made you sad yesterday, and I want to make it up to you today." Gilbert smiled mischievously.

Although Austin felt a little blushed because his mood was seen through, Gilbert's smile after that really made him shudder. Trying to explain: "No, my personality..."

"It doesn't matter, it's just today." Gilbert said with a smile.

It seems that today is not going to be a good day. Austinge thought silently in his heart.

At noon, everyone hid in the shade of the trees to rest. Clemont and Abel came over and asked Gilbert: "Did you have any impressions of the Dragon Clan on your way to exile?"

"Are you going to take the road where the Dragon Clan's territory is?" Gilbert frowned and asked.

"Well, after all, we want to reach the volcano earlier. Considering our current location, that will be a shortcut." Abel explained: "What's wrong? Are the dragons difficult to deal with?"

"This season is the dormant period of the dragon clan. When the dragon clan is dormant, they will ask 'yalong' to guard the surrounding territory. Although the ability of the 'yaron' is far beyond that of the dragon clan, they are very aware of the surrounding environment. The induction is extremely strong. As long as you step within ten miles of where they are, your footsteps can be clearly heard." Gilbert said: "And the Dragon Clan is isolated from the forces of all races on the island. You cannot enter the Dragon Clan. One step of the territory is one of the iron rules on this island."

Austin's eyes widened when he heard this: "So awesome!"

The eyes of Clemont and others also became anxious. They had finally reached this point, but they did not expect that the last difficulty in front of them would be so difficult.

No wonder that among the four pieces of information sent to them by the dwarfs, the dragons had the least weight.

"Even if you can defeat the 'Yalong', once the dragon clan's power is awakened, you will become the target of expulsion from the entire island." Gilbert said in a serious tone.

"Why? Don't the Dragon Clan have no contact with you?" Austinger said in shock.

Although he has not yet seen the true appearance of the Dragon Clan, the intimidating momentum of the other party attracting thousands of troops with a single call has already formed a rough idea in Austin's mind.

"This is an agreement signed between various families on the island, and why such an agreement exists. I don't know." Gilbert first answered Astinge's question, and then said to Clemont: "So I suggest you go around a little further, even if it takes some time. There is no need to push yourself into a dead end."

After listening to Gilbert's words, Clemont looked at Abel. Then he said: "Thank you for telling us this. Without you, maybe we wouldn't have known this information before we entered the Dragon Clan's territory. However, we still have to discuss the specific march plan for a while before making a decision."

"Of course, I'm just a suggestion." Gilbert shook his head and said.

Clemont and Abel nodded and left.

After a while, Abel asked everyone to gather and prepare to set off.

During the afternoon march, the soldiers were still chatting lively about some popular topics just like they were this morning.

Austinge looked around and whispered: "It seems that the news about the Dragon Clan has not spread yet."

"Of course, how can anyone know that there is a dead end ahead and would still be willing to follow those three people. I guess the information that I can find out clearly has been sealed within the circle of the three of them." Gilbert stared at Abel. 's back, he said bitterly.

"Don't say that." Austinger looked at Gilbert's determined expression and sighed: "You don't understand the atmosphere in the army. Everyone wants to complete the mission with one heart, and these three captains are good people who are trustworthy. Even if In the end, I chose to take that path.

Knowing the inside story, I will believe that they have already thought of good countermeasures, let alone other soldiers. "

"Hmph." Gilbert said: "What else can be done in this situation? When the time comes they want to die, and I will take you to escape."

"Haha." Austinger chuckled and said: "I am such a big living person, but I can still be dragged away by you. Don't think about these things. The day of decision-making is still far away."

Gilbert looked up at Austin and looked at the other person's smile. Sighing: Will the optimistic attitude of Calradian soldiers be trained when they join the army? Why is everyone in this military camp like this?

"I saw the sunset in winter for the first time." A soldier said with emotion towards the setting sun.

"Me too," the other soldier replied.

"It's almost the end of the year now, and Dehreem should have started preparing for the New Year's Festival soon." Jeb recalled.

"It's a pity that we can't celebrate the New Year in Dehreim this year." Levin said in a choked voice.

"Stop talking, I'm thinking about the homemade smoked pork every year in my hometown." Jeb sniffed and said.

"Why do you think of food?" Levin glanced at Jeb with disgust.

"Forehead..."

As the soldiers said, the city of Dehrim has become bustling.

Even with the heavy snow, there are still many people happily taking to the streets to buy new year goods.

Kant also took the rare opportunity to walk onto the street in casual clothes, with only Aubrey and one guard by his side.

"Seeing how prosperous the city of Dehreim is, Your Majesty, you can rest assured." Orb said with a smile inside.

"Business is a good thing." Kant nodded: "The New Year's goods sent to Durandal have probably arrived."

"Well, the convoy left a week ago. It's probably on its way back now," Aubrey replied.

"After they come back, Dehreim will close the city gates in a few days. Sure enough, staying in the desert, you can't feel the autumn weather at all. In the blink of an eye, it is almost the end of the year." Kant said with emotion. .

"Your Majesty," Aubrey said hesitantly: "The news from the island..."

"I haven't received any news from the elves recently. I just found out a few days ago: DeWitt and the others seemed to have changed their route on the way. Therefore, the elves have not received news from them either," Kant said.

"Then will something unexpected happen to them?" Aubrey asked worriedly.

"In unfamiliar places, accidents are inevitable." Kant explained: "However, judging from the content of the letter, it seems that there was only a slight flaw in the food."
